Report: NFL doesn't think Suh violated its conduct policy


Lions all-pro DT Ndamukong Suh has served half of his two-game suspension after his Thanksgiving stomp on Packers G Evan Dietrich-Smith.

But might Suh miss more time after his Portland, Ore., car crash over the weekend, especially after some of his passengers later told police he was driving recklessly but was more concerned about protecting his image than attending to their injuries?

It doesn't sound like Suh's suspension will be extended per NFL Network's Steve Wyche, though he said on Tuesday night's NFL Total Access that the league is "monitoring fallout" from the crash and "plans to let the legal process play out and not intervene."

There may not be any fallout considering Portland police have no plans to re-open Suh's case. He was not impaired and was cooperative after the wreck, and his passengers only amended their statements in the days following the incident.

Per a league source, Wyche reported, "nothing that Suh has done, at this moment, appears to violate the NFL's personal conduct policy."
